Solubilization in Surfactant Aggregates Book

Part 1 Overview: overview and history of the study of solubilization. Part 2 Solubilization in micelles: solubilization of gases; thermodynamics of solubilization of polar additives in micellar solutions; solubilization of uncharged molecules in ionic micellar solutions - toward an understanding at the molecular level; solubilization in mixed micelles; solubilization in amphiphilic copolymer solutions; kinetics of solubilization in surfactant-based systems. Part 3 Solubilization in nonmicellar surfactant aggregates: adsolubilization; solubilization in micelles and vesicles studied by fluorescence techniques, interplay between the microproperties of the aggregates and the locus and extent of solubilization; solubilization of organic compounds by vesicles. Part 4 Methods of measuring solubilization: solubilization, as studied by nuclear spin relaxation and NMR-based self-diffusion techniques; the partitioning of neutral solutes between micelles and water as deduced from critical micelle concentration determinations; vapor pressure studies of solubilization; comparison of experimental methods for the determination of the partition coefficients of n-alcohols in SDS and DTAB micelles. Part 5 Applications of solubilization: solubilization and detergency; solubilization in micellar separations.
